Twenty-eight years into a career strolling the Formula One paddock with a nose for a story, Sky F1’s roving reporter Ted Kravitz digests the inner workings of the sport and their protagonists better than anyone. Some of it may be fiction, some may be gossip and some may be fact. Yet when it came to the biggest transfer in the history of F1, it was foreseen many moons ago.
Locked in conversation on Sky Sports F1 after Lewis Hamilton’s fourth world championship in 2017, Kravitz is asked what the future holds for the Mercedes driver. His timing is a smidge out – he guessed three years, rather than six – but he forecasted that Hamilton would want to conclude his career racing for Ferrari.
